LONDON, November A Vienna cor
respondent of the Times claims to know
that triple alliance was secretly con-
Guided last spring, but the details were
finally settled in recent interview be-
tween Signor Crispi and Prince Bis
marck. The treaty, says the CORE

Austria and Italy against any at
tempt to disturb the balance of
power in Europe. 1t also stipuIates

a combined action for the conclusion of
peace. No one of the three will be
allowed to desist from war or to treat
separately without the consent of the
others. 1t is noteworthy that the alli-
ance also covers the Mediterranean.

A Brace of scoundreIs.

WASHINGTON, November 4.-Shelburn
7. Hopkins, who informed the police
that mysterious package supposed TO
be an internal machine had been sent
to Chief Justice Waite, made con-
fession this morning that he and
Arthur 3. Sperry had invented the
swhole scheme for the purpose of selling
the story to the newspapers. The phial,
which was found in the package con-
tanned only ink and a very small
quantity of powder, just sufficient to
burst the phisl, and alarm the person
who might open the package. Hopkins
and Sperry we're immediately arrested,
charged with conspiracy to defraud
newspaper correspondents.
WASHINGTON, November A chem
list examined the package this after
noon, and found that Hopkins state
ment as to its contents was substau-
TALLY correct, except as to the Percus-
sion caps, which he said were exploded,
but which the chemist found to be new.
The postal authorities say there is no
Federal law under which the two news
paper men can be prosecuted, and that
the only action that can be taken is pos
sibly under the District laws.

The Fisheries squabble.

TORONTO, November 4-The Globe
which has recently been protesting very
vigorously against the appointment OF
Joseph Chamberlain as membe r of the
fisheries commission, comes out to-day
in another strong editorial protesting
against Chamberlain serving on the
commission, and says there is no doubt
his work on it will involve Canada in
tremendous risks. The alternative of
the acceptance of Mr.. Bayard's pro-
posals will be non-intercourse, COM
mercial reprisals and probably war
The Globe says the case is one in which
the United States has comparatively
little to fear. Great Britain has to fear
large loss of trade, large expenditure
OF money and the shedding of British
blood, but not invasion. Canada has
everything to fear, for there would be
the battle ground, theirs would be the
main cost, and their young men would
furnish the bulk of the repast for the
carrion crow. The paper then goes on
to advocate unrestricted reciprocity as
perfectly honorable method of set
Ting the dispute.

Ba1tour in birmingham

LONDON, November 4. - Balfour
Chief Secretary for Ireland, went to
Birmingham to day AMI attended the
first annual meeting of the Midland
Conservative Union. He was accom-
panied by detective and the chief OF
the bennington police. AT Birmingham,
armed detectives were posted at the
depot to watch for suspicious characters.
Balfour during the day gave assur-
ances that government was resolved to
proceed boldly and firmly with the
work they had taken in hand in Ireland
and bring it to a good conclusion.
Balfour addressed large and enthu-
siastic audience at the Town Hall this
evening. be said he hoped that at the
next session of Parliament England and
Scotland would get fair share of legis-
lation. Still, the Irish question would
remain the foremost problem IN the
mind of every one who'took an interest
in the fortunes of his country. The
question was not whether Ireland was
to be governed under Ter own Or the
English Parliament, but whether she
was TO be governed at all in accordance
with any of those principles which had
hitherto regulated the action OF every
civilized state in the world.
The remainder of his speech was
principally devoted TO the defense of
the action of the police at Mitohels-
town and attacks on Glsdstone's pol
icy. He concluded by predicting that
a steady appliance of the present policy
of the government would result in the
Irish becoming enthusiastic and loyal
supporters of an empire which they, By
their virtues, were fitted to adorn.

Nitro elycerIns Experiments.

New YORK, November 4.-Tbe Sun,
tom orrow, will,say: Yesterday, at
Sandy Hook, Sergeant d. Smolianinoff
made experiments in firing nitro
glycerine from a 1O0-pound parrot
rihed gun, using eighteen pounds of
service powder for a shot. The shells
used were of about ninety-two pounds
weight and were charged with five
pounds OF nitro glycerine each. and
provided with the inventors ignitor.
The gun was fitted in an ordinary
cradle, and the shots were directed
against fourth-inch-thick target of
wrought iron. At the first firing the
shell duly exploded on the impact of
the target, making depression
about four inches deep and displacing
the target about three inches. Some
fragments of the she'll were scattered
over the fortress. soaring those inside.
She second she'll exploded, making a
crack in the target about fourteen
inches long and quarter of an inch
wide and broke two rivets, one three
and half inches and the other two and
a half inches in diameter. The third
she'll also exploded, making an impress
sion about five inches deep. After the
three shots the target was found dis
placed about eighteen inches and torn
from the wooden base 10 which it was
fastened. Up to this time this target
has stood all kinds of shots, even CELIA
tine-filled shells The inventor believes
that if he could have had steel instead of
iron shells, the target would have been
blown to fragments.
